Field Journal: Shrieking Threlk

Name: (Shrieking) Threlk
Type: Insect
Temper: Harmless when asleep. Extremely aggressive when woken. Untameable.
Region: Orsa Isles, exclusive to Karsh
Rarity: Common
Lifespan: One year

Info: The Threlk tend to live in colonies, and they spend most of their time asleep and partially buried in the ground for camouflage. They are carnivorous and mostly eat animals that walk on their sensitive shells and wake them. However, they will attack and eat larger things as well; it would not be unusual for a colony to take down any persons who unwittingly wander into their territory. They communicate with very loud, high-pitched screams that wake up the entire colony and alert it to prey, or warn about predators. If in the woods one were to hear a chorus of ungodly screams nearby, they're likely near a Threlk nest catching a meal.
